Howlin' Ray's

southern·$$·Chinatown

Nashville hot chicken phenomenon; shattering spice levels, cult following, and legendary wait times.

Insider Intel

Must Try

Start with Medium if you're new - the heat levels are real. The sando is the move. Mac and cheese to cool down. Howlin' and above only for serious heat seekers.

Best Time

Arrive before they open or accept a serious wait. The line is legendary. Chinatown location added more capacity but waits persist.

Know Before You Go

Johnny Ray Zone perfected Nashville hot chicken for LA. The spice levels are not a joke - build up slowly. The cult following is earned. Bring cash for shorter line (card accepted inside).
